I enjoy being played for recordings, gigs and rehearsals. I love wearing La Bella medium gauge flatwounds and my old brown leather strap. Guitarist Billy Farris called Dale when he saw me hanging in a pawnshop near 10 mile road just outside of Detroit. He must have known that we would make a good team. Thanks Billy!
